FLOWERS, LEAVES, AND FRUIT OF THE MACADAMIA, MAOADAMIA TERNIFOLIA. 
In Queensland this nut has become of commercial importance and orchards of it are being 
planted. No selection of varieties has yet been made, nor is it possible as yet to predict with regard 
to yields or diseases, but the fact that the tree will fruit in southern Florida makes it eligible for 
trial by a large number of experimenters. The fruits are borne in clusters, the shell is thick, and the 
edible portion is as easily removed as that of a filbert. In Plant Immigrants No. 78 is shown an 
illustration of the nuts. Photographed (P19721FS) by P. H. Dorsetfat Miami, Fla., Field Station, 
June 14, 1916. Natural size.
